Spirit In The Night (Live)

Crazy Janey and her Mission Man

Were back in the alley tradin' hands

'Long came Wild Billy with his friend, G-Man

All duded up for Saturday night

Well Billy slammed on his coaster brakes

And said, "Anybody wanna go on up to Greasy Lake?

It's about a mile down on the dark side of Route 88

I got a bottle of rose, so let's try it

"We'll pick up Hazy Davy and Killer Joe

And I'll take you all out to where the gypsy angels go

They're built like light

Ooh, and they dance like spirits in the night"

In the night

Oh, you don't know what they can do to ya

Spirits in the night

Oh, in the night

Stand right up now and let it shoot through ya

Well now wild young Billy was a crazy cat

And he shook some dust out of his coonskin cap

He said, "Trust some of this, it'll show you where you're at

Or at least it'll help you really feel it"

Well by the time we made it up to Greasy Lake

I had my head out the window and Janey's fingers were in the cake

I think I really dug her, 'cause I was to loose to fake

I said, "I'm hurt," she said, "Honey, let me heal it"

And we danced all night to a soul fairy band

And she kissed me just right like only a lonely angel can

She felt so nice

Just as soft as a spirit in the night

In the night

Oh, Janey don't know what she do to ya

Like a spirit in the night

All night

Stand right up now and let it shoot through me

Well now the night was bright and the stars threw light

On Billy and Davy dancing in the moonlight

They were down near the water having a stoned mud fight

Killer Joe gone passed out on the lawn

Well now Hazy Davy got really hurt

He ran into the lake in just his socks and a shirt

Me and Crazy Janey was makin' love in the dirt

Singin' our birthday song

Janey said it was time to go

So we closed our eyes and said goodbye to gypsy angel row

Felt so right

Together we moved like spirits in the night

In the night

Oh you don't know what they can do to ya

Them spirits in the night

All night

Oh stand right up and let it shoot through ya

Like a spirit in the night

All night

All night

All night

All night

All night

All night
